[François REMY:] > (however, I don't understand either why people think > it could degrade the normal case performance, this is simply not true: Hold it; what do you define as 'normal'? The normal case for most web pages does not tie animations to scrolling. So I assume that by normal you mean JS effects tied to scroll events. I do not think anyone says it would be worse. Only that it might not be as good as you think. I, for one, don't buy it would be sufficiently better to scale to what devs will do once creating such animations is easy. But in fairness that's just a matter of time. My bigger concern is that there are far more important scenarios to address right now. Making Facebook's momentum scrolling better, for instance, impacts far more users than enabling Beercamp-style scrolling stunts (however cool I may find them).
